Submit FORM to SAME PAGE

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 02.2008

For example if I have a normal form like this:

<form name=”form1″>
<input type=”text” name=”lName”>
<input type=”text” name=”fName”>

<input type=”button” Value=”Submit” onClick=”some javascript action”>
</form>

I want to display the inputs of both the textbox in the same page after clicking the button, for example, just below the form.

How do I do it? ?

<input type="button" Value="Submit" onclick="document.getElementById('oPut').innerHTML = 'Welcome '+document.getElementById('fName").value+' '+document.getElementById('lName").value>"

@joyceqianauthorJul 02.2008 — if im using scripts like ASP / JSP. how retrieve those values so that i can process them? e.g if they re numbers?

@TheBearMayJul 02.2008 — By default the values will be sent to the POST header upon form submit, so just retrieve the values from there.

@joyceqianauthorJul 02.2008 — sorry, post header as in.. the query string?

if my form method is POST? how do i retrieve it? request.getParameter?

@TheBearMayJul 02.2008 — ASP: <%=Request.Form("fName")%>

JSP: <%=request.getParameter( "fName" )%>

@joyceqianauthorJul 03.2008 — Sorry, i still cannot get what i desire..

The form doesnt even post, the button:

<input type="button" Value="Submit" onclick="document.getElementById('oPut').innerHTML = 'This is '+document.getElementById('num1').value+'<br>This is '+document.getElementById('num2').value">

only prints what was input in the textbox and i cant seem to extract that value and convert to something that can be processed by JSP/ASP. ?
